Netflix Top Movies And Shows: What's Trending On July 7, 2022
Crime does pay?
While this sort of fact was already relatively well-known, if there is one lesson that we can take away from our findings on the Netflix Top 10 for Thursday, July 7, 2022, it is that you can almost always rely on true crime (or even just crime fiction) to be a hit. Case in point: the Top 10 Movies in the U.S. has a new champion today in the form of the streaming platform’s latest true crime documentary and a hit legal drama that was nowhere to be seen on the Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. yesterday has made an impressive return to the list. We shall reveal these criminally popular titles - as well as what else is trending on Netflix today - in our following breakdown below.
Top 10 Movies On Netflix In The U.S. - July 7, 2022
Making its debut on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies in the U.S. at Number One on July 7, 2022, is Girl in the Picture - a gripping new documentary from the director of one of the best true crime documentaries on Netflix, Abducted in Plain Sight - followed by former champion Sing 2 and Mean Girls, which is up a peg from yesterday. Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises also managed to surpass the new action comedy The Man from Toronto, which now sits above the more serious 2018 action film Final Score. In fact - outside of the somber family drama Leave No Trace in seventh place - the whole bottom half of the list is action movies, with fellow newcomer Wanted - the wonderfully over-the-top 2008 adaptation of Mark Millar’s comic - sitting between the Jason Statham-led Wild Card and Contraband with Mark Wahlberg in the bottom three.

Top 10 TV Shows On Netflix In The U.S. - July 7, 2022
While it seemed like the new series adaptation of The Lincoln Lawyer had rested its case yesterday, the Netflix original found its way back on to the Top 10 TV Shows in the U.S. today in the bottom slot as former tenth place holder Grey’s Anatomy managed to rise up a couple pegs. However, the phenomenally popular Stranger Things is still Number One and followed by superhero TV show The Umbrella Academy as back-to-back hit CW series All American and Legacies and new reality competition Snowflake Mountain have also stayed put.
